That summer, in the remote field of our small town, along with the itinerants and their Luna Park, came Ali. The Luna Park also had a carousel, which we dreamed of even when we were awake. Ali had nothing - but we would learn that later. What we knew then was that she was different and, as the adults told us, we should fear and avoid her. That's why they gave us a handkerchief to put on her to make her stand out. Until we discovered that Ali could do magic... A story about prejudice, racism, but also the Holocaust of the Roma. About the narrow-mindedness of adults and the cruelty yet sensitivity of children. Above all, however, the story of a true, generous friendship and a magical summer... Rich educational material is available for the book.
